Is Jim Ryan the worst CEO PlayStation has ever had?

Didn't they sell like 5 million of these things? You even have to ask Sony for an adapter to use the PSVR on PS5. What a fucking shitshow.
Is Jim Ryan the worst CEO PlayStation has ever had?
I don't remember Sony even mentioning PS5 and VR in the same sentence. Did they basically drop support for PSVR?
Which is quite odd, early 2019 there were some reports that Sony would push the PSVR harder on the PS5; change in leadership must have changed that.
The Hitman VR games and No Man's Sky VR are coming, and Dreams had their VR update recently, those are all pretty big games for VR. And like I said, they sold a fuckton of headsets and move controllers considering how pricey they were. I think Ryan just doesn't know what to do with the company. He's just running it on cruise control. I think he's going to turn out to be the Don Mattrick of PlayStation. They need to find someone who gives a shit about games.
I can't even imagine what it's like to be so pants-on-head retarded as to have actually bought PSVR.
Here's your (You), faggot
Thanks, gimme another. And while you're at it, tell me about what went through your head when you made the decision to buy VR for a console.
>What is backwards compatibility?
Keep seething over Based Jim dabbing on the Cuckbox's corpse.
Everything about PSVR on PS4 runs on compatibility mode. The adapter is because the PS4 camera has a proprietary port and the dongle converts it to USB.
PSVR2 is coming eventually, just not for a while because PS5 launch is more important.
>I think he's going to turn out to be the Don Mattrick of PlayStation
What a terrifying thought.
This isn't about console war shit you fucking sub-retard.
A sign that PSVR2 is coming? I hope so, that headset was outdated trash even before it launched. Exclusivity garbage in the VR space is the wrong direction to go in but at least PSVR2 would raise game standards slightly.
it means psvr games will still be made for ps4 and playable on ps5 with bc. when the next gen headset is ready it will get ps5 games but it wont be until 2022. not sure why retards are freaking out
They should have just had one version digital or physical that works on both PS4 and PS5. Fucking greedy shits.
Never bought one but what's wrong with PSVR?
IO is making some really retarded decisions lately.
>HM3 getting VR!!! (on PS only loll)
>VR on PS5 requires the PS4 game
>HM3 going EGS only for one year (Thx for supporting us the last 5 years, Steamfags lmao)
Stupid niggers are getting too cocky.
I wouldn't say cocky, they probably took money from both companies for some sort of temporary exclusivity put of desperation, and their marketing and selling decisions have been absolutely bumfuck retarded for a while now.
>worst VR implementation out there, straight up lowest quality fps and resolution since ya know it's basically running on a 2013 laptop
>closed platform and more expensive games than everything else, can only play what sony let's you
>tied to PS4 so can't ever use a different headset or use PSVR elsewhere
>least amount of games
>ruled by what Sony wants to do so if sony abandons it (which they did) then you've got a $500 paperweight
Only absolute retards bought that shit
It's connected to weaker hardware is one problem, but another is that it has terrible resolution and archaic controllers and allegedly not the best tracking either.
I'd put money on even windows mixed reality headsets being better, but the psvr is more accessible so it's sold quite well despite all of its shortcomings.
uh yea psvr is only via backwards compatibility
ps5 isn't using psvr when it does it will probably be psvr/wireless (wifi6)
guessing hitman3 ps5 version has no psvr code built in
probably got some kickback for adding psvr support
was the cheapest and most accessible outside of building a new pc also sony was funding projects until everyone saw it was a niche format but now probably costs more than cuckspace vr
Aw, what a shame. I actually looking forward to whatever PSVR2 thing they cooking up based on that patents they put on.
it has better games than pc so Zig Forums is seething as usual
I got a $250 Black Friday bundle a couple of years ago, didn't have a VR ready PC at the time. It was fun for what it was, but I've since built a good PC and have moved on to PC VR. The biggest drawbacks to the PSVR in my opinion were the Move controllers and the drifting tracking, I was constantly having to recenter.
sounds more like a problem with the retarded devs at IOI. They couldn't even figure out how to get the ninja outfit unlockable on all missions 4 years later. They're room temperature IQ devs.

And that, in our view, people should make games that can make the most of those features." - Jim Ryan
>releases Spider-Man MM, Horizon 2, and Sackboy on PS4 too
this guy doesn't know what he's doing
>”Sony believes in VR, and we definitely believe at some point in the future, VR will represent a meaningful component of interactive entertainment. Will it be this year? No. Will it be next year? No. But will it come at some stage? We believe that.”
On the contrary, this guy sounds like a genius keeping the company from pissing money away overdeveloping gimmicky shit before the market is ready for it.
aka (ps)vr flopped
>Sony pays for exclusive VR mode
>It'll be for a last-gen console version only by the time its out
Well, the timing sure didn't pan out on that one, not that I had much hope for this mode in the first place when the PS4 could barely hold 30fps during regular gameplay. I expect the VR mode to be severely nerfed in comparison with regards to pedestrian count.
can't imagine anyone besides no man sky adding vr modes (already successful) to old games
none of the vr games benefit from ps5 hardware out of the box since everything is locked performance otherwise people throwing up.
psvr outdated af and not even that cheap, inconvenient and you have to email sony to get special dongle
All Sony had to do was create something as powerful or more powerful than the x and stop being lazy and cheap fucks with backwards compatibility and let us play ps1/2/3 games and they would have won. They’re so far removed from what they originally were that they went into a vortex up their own asses. Fuck Sony Japan for letting California and euros ruin anything. I will forever be mad about this
